WELCOME TO MODENA

I’m happy and honoured to invite you to the 66th National SICPRE Congress to be held from 21– 23 September 2017 in Modena in Italy’s Emilia-Romagna Region. We have lined up an interesting and innovative programme of conferences, workshops and debates.
A city of art and culture, Modena is a Unesco World Heritage Site. A stone’s throw from each other are three places of exceptional beauty: Piazza Grande, the city’s main square; the Duomo, or Cathedral, an internationally renowned Romanesque masterpiece; and the Ghirlandina Belfry, one of the most beautiful in Italy. Modena is not just a beautiful historic Italian town. It is also the “Land of Motors”. The passion and longstanding mechanical expertise of the area has a long history that in the early 20th century led to the development of mechanical workshops and car manufacturers that were to become household names, like Stanguellini, Ferrari, Maserati, De Tomaso and Pagani.
Modena is also a byword for fine food and wines. Its province boasts the highest number of DOP and IGP products in Italy, official certifications denoting unique specialities like Modena’s traditional balsamic vinegar, salami and Lambrusco wine, famous the world over.
Last but not least, Modena is famous for “Belcanto” singing - from the unforgettable Luciano Pavarotti to Mirella Freni. It is also known as the “Capital of Italian beat”.
Modena has many facets! We will try to show them all off to SICPRE 2017 participants, extending the warm hospitality typical of our region.
We hope that many will attend. Together with the Scientific Committee, we are preparing a top-level programme that will be dynamic, international and as interactive as possible. The 2017 edition of SICPRE’s National Congress will mark the start of an important partnership: on Saturday, 23rd September, the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery, the historic school of post-bariatric plastic surgery, will be joining the congress for a first joint meeting with our Society.

Cosmetic and Reconstructive Surgery of the Breast, Head and Neck, Limbs and Genitals, Reconstructive Microsurgery of various parts of the body and Aesthetic Medicine are just a few of the topics that will receive special focus during the congress. To ensure optimal congress organization, each topic will be dealt with on different days in plenary sessions, lectures and masterclasses – some of which will be led by our illustrious foreign guests. The many important challenges currently facing plastic surgery will be the topic of lively interactive sessions.
Lastly, I would like to give particular focus to young colleagues who have either recently completed or are completing their specialization (PSG) and who have just become, or will soon become members of a scientific society that will guide, instruct and update them. Round tables will be dedicated to our younger colleagues, giving them the possibility of coming into direct contact with their European colleagues.
Alongside the scientific schedule we will also be laying on a full social programme that will be enjoyable to all.
